Hi,
Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. To make you clear PCOS cannot be just diagnosed by Scan, as its mandatory to have irregular periods(ANOVULATORY periods, altered LH:FSH ratio and scan changes, either of any two will be called PCOS. Hence even if the scan is showing polycystic ovaries without changes in periods need not be a concern.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow-ups. If you like my answers kindly rate it, and write a review as well. Please do not forget to accept it.
Thank you,
Wish you good health.
Regards,

General & Family Physician Dr. Shoaib Khan's  Response
Hello and welcome to HCM.

Thank you for your query.

Both the reports can only be differentiated based on the sizes of the cysts measured and the number of cysts present. Based on this information a comparison can be made, and asserted whether there is a response to medication prescribed.

In most cases of PCOS/PCOD treatment targets normalization of the menstrual cycle (which would have otherwise been irregular). There is few or less evidence showing that the cysts can completely resolve with treatment.

In my opinion, both the reports should more or less be the same, with a possible chance of slight improvement (due to the treatment advised).

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://doctor.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-shoaib-khan/64581 . I would gladly help you.

Best wishes.
